midnight.2. Next, run the other 21 data validation reports (see Attachment 1) which identify other
data entry inconsistencies. Save any reports that flag incorrect data before any data validation is made. The timeframe for these reports are also for the previous day, from midnight to midnight. Edit all incorrect data identified in these reports
3. After the data has been corrected, re-run and print the ‘Excess Triage Category Wait’ Report. This report is used to review the ‘Doctor Seen By’ times. Apply the following parameters: Exclude ‘Did Not Wait’ Exclude ‘Triage Category 4’
